Christmas 2011

 This was a very magical Christmas for our sweet Whitney.  She ran into our bedroom around 7 am and said to me, "Mom!  Let's go see if Santa came last night!"
Well, he did.  He even ate those chocolate chip cookies and drank the milk she left out.  He brought her a doll house, puzzles, little dollies for her house, fruit snacks, gum, books, melty beads and crafting things.  When she opened up her toys she would say expressions like, "Look!  Santa KNOWS I like fruit snacks!"
There really is magic in believing.  It's such a special time- and I'm so glad we get to experience this with our kids.

MacKay slept through Christmas morning, and we made it to church at 9 am.

Upon our arrival back to the house, Whitney and her cousins got to play with some of her toys (crafts) before getting ready for Grandma/Grandpa Paxton's house.

Sadly enough, I FORGOT my camera on Christmas night.  These were the only pics I got of that special day.  And even MORE sad... it was MacKay's first Christmas, and I only snapped one bad picture on my cell.

We had a lovely day and evening and it was very neat to be able to share this time with both of our families.

Merry Christmas 2011!!!
